Definitions
- This invention relates generally to crosslinked polymer compositions comprising a first synthetic polymer containing multiple nucleophilic groups crosslinked using a second synthetic polymer containing multiple electrophilic groups, and to methods of using such compositions as bioadhesives, for tissue augmentation, in the prevention of surgical adhesions, and for coating surfaces of synthetic implants, as drug delivery matrices and for ophthalmic applications.
- hydrophobic crosslinking agents include any hydrophobic polymer that contains, or can be chemically derivatized to contain, two or more succinimidyl groups.
- composition useful in the prevention of surgical adhesions comprising a substrate material and an anti-adhesion binding agent, where the substrate material preferably comprises collagen and the binding agent preferably comprises at least one tissue-reactive functional group and at least one substrate-reactive functional group.
- Japanese patent publication No. 07090241 discloses a composition used for temporary adhesion of a lens material to a support, to mount the material on a machining device, comprising a mixture of polyethylene glycol, having an average molecular weight in the range of 1000-5000, and poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone, having an average molecular weight in the range of 30,000-200,000.
- crosslinked polymer compositions comprising synthetic polymers which contain multiple nucleophilic groups crosslinked using synthetic polymers containing multiple electrophilic groups, and methods for using these compositions to effect adhesion between a first surface and a second surface (wherein at least one of the first and second surfaces is preferably a native tissue surface) or to effect the augmentation of tissue, or to prevent surgical adhesion, or to coat surfaces of synthetic implants, or for delivering drugs or other active agents, or for ophthalmic applications.
- the present invention discloses a crosslinked polymer composition
- a crosslinked polymer composition comprising a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups, and a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups which are capable of covalently bonding to one another to form a three dimensional matrix.
- a preferred composition of the invention comprises polyethylene glycol containing two or more primary amino groups as the first synthetic polymer, and polyethylene glycol containing two or more succinimidyl groups (a five-membered ring structure represented herein as --N(COCH 2 ) 2 ) as the second synthetic polymer.
- a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups is reacted with a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups, wherein the first synthetic polymer is present in molar excess in comparison to the second synthetic polymer, to form a positively charged matrix, which is then reacted with a negatively charged compound.
- a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups is reacted with a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups, wherein the second synthetic polymer is present in molar excess in comparison to the first synthetic polymer, to form a negatively charged matrix, which is then reacted with a positively charged compound.
- a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups is mixed with a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups to provide a reaction mixture; the reaction mixture is applied to a first surface before substantial crosslinking has occurred; and the first surface is contacted with a second surface to effect adhesion between the two surfaces.
- a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups and a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups are administered simultaneously to a tissue site in need of augmentation and the reaction mixture is allowed to crosslink in situ to effect augmentation of the tissue.
- the first synthetic polymer and the second synthetic polymer may be mixed immediately prior to being administered to a tissue site, such that the majority of the crosslinking reaction proceeds in vivo.
- a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups is mixed with a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups to provide a reaction mixture; the reaction mixture is applied to tissue comprising, surrounding, or adjacent to a surgical site before substantial crosslinking has occurred between the nucleophilic groups and the electrophilic groups; the reaction mixture is allowed to continue crosslinking in situ until equilibrium crosslinking has been achieved; and the surgical site is closed by conventional methodologies.
- a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups is mixed with a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups to provide a reaction mixture; the reaction mixture is applied to a surface of a synthetic implant; and the components of the reaction mixture are allowed to crosslink with each other on the surface of the implant.
- compositions of the invention are optically clear, making the compositions and methods of the invention particularly suited for use in ophthalmic applications in which optical clarity is a requirement.
- compositions of the invention are comprised of biocompatible, non-immunogenic components which leave no toxic, potentially inflammatory or immunogenic reaction products at the tissue site of administration.
- the crosslinked polymer compositions have a high compression strength and high swellability, i.e., a composition that has been dried will swell to three times (or more) its dried size upon rehydration, and is more "elastic.” Since these polymers are generally very hydrophilic, they are more easily injected, ie., the crosslinked composition stays as a "cohesive mass" when injected through a fine gague (27-30 gague) needle.
- nucleophilic groups on the first synthetic polymer may covalently bind to primary amino groups on lysine residues of collagen molecules at the tissue site of administration, in effect, "biologically anchoring" the composition to the host tissue.
- compositions are non-immunogenic and do not require a "skin test" prior to beginning treatment, as do currently available xenogeneic collagen compositions, such as those manufactured from bovine hides.
- compositions of the invention are not subject to enzymatic cleavage by matrix metalloproteinases, such as collagenase, and are therefore not readily degradable in vivo and, as such, are expected to have greater long-term persistence in vivo than prior art collagen compositions.
- Still another feature is that, when the groups on each of the polymers utilized react to form an amide bond, the manufacturing of the compositions of the present invention can be highly controlled rendering more consistent quality of products.
- FIG. 1 shows compression force versus displacement for disks (approximate dimensions: 5 mm thick ⁇ 5 mm diameter) of crosslinked polymer compositions comprising tetra-amino PEG (10,000 MW) crosslinked using tetrafunctionally activated SE-PEG (10,000 MW), measured using the Instron Universal Tester, Model 4202, at a compression rate of 2 mm per minute.

- FIGS. 4 to 13 show the formation of various crosslinked synthetic polymer compositions from hydrophilic polymers.
- FIGS. 14 to 18 show the formation of various crosslinked synthetic polymer compositions from hydrophobic polymers.
- crosslinked polymer compositions are prepared by reacting a first synthetic polymer containing two or more nucleophilic groups with a second synthetic polymer containing two or more electrophilic groups capable of covalently binding with the nucleophilic groups on the first synthetic polymer.
- compositions of the invention are non-immunogenic and, as such, do not require a "skin test" prior to starting treatment, as does xenogenic collagen. Also, unlike collagen, the compositions of the invention are not subject to enzymatic cleavage by matrix metalloproteinases (e.g., collagenase) and are therefore expected to have greater long-term persistence in vivo than currently available collagen compositions.
- matrix metalloproteinases e.g., collagenase

- polymer refers inter alia to polyalkyls, polyamino acids and polysaccharides. Additionally, for external or oral use, the polymer may be polyacrylic acid or carbopol.
- synthetic polymer refers to polymers that are not naturally occurring and that are produced via chemical synthesis. As such, naturally occurring proteins such as collagen and naturally occurring polysaccharides such as hyaluronic acid are specifically excluded.

If the first synthetic polymer is a difunctionally activated synthetic polymer, the second synthetic polymer must contain three or more functional groups in order to obtain a three-dimensional crosslinked network. Most preferably, both the first and the second synthetic polymer contain at least three functional groups.
- Multi-nucleophilic polymers Synthetic polymers containing multiple nucleophilic groups are also referred to generically herein as "multi-nucleophilic polymers".
- multi-nucleophilic polymers must contain at least two, more preferably, at least three, nucleophilic groups.

- Preferred multi-nucleophilic polypeptides are synthetic polypeptides that have been synthesized to incorporate amino acids containing primary amino groups (such as lysine) and/or amino acids containing thiol groups (such as cysteine).
- Poly(lysine) a synthetically produced polymer of the amino acid lysine (145 MW), is particularly preferred.

The gels were pushed out of the syringes and sliced into 5-6 mm thick disks having a diameter of 5 mm, for use in compression and swellability testing, as described below.
- Compression force versus displacement for the two gels was measured in the Instron Universal Tester, Model 4202, at a compression rate of 2 mm per minute, using disks of the two gels prepared as described above. Compression force (in Newtons) versus gel displacement (in millimeters) is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 for gels prepared using the tetra SE-PEG and tri SC-PEG, respectively.
- the gels swelled two to three times in weight, as well as swelling an average of about 50% in both diameter and thickness.
- Gels comprising tetra-amino PEG (10,000 MW, obtained from Shearwater Polymers, Huntsville, Ala.) and 14% (by weight) of tetrafunctionally activated SE-PEG ("tetra SE-PEG", 10,000 MW, also obtained from Shearwater Polymers) were prepared by mixing the tetra-amino PEG (at a concentration of 25 mg/ml in water) with the tetra SE-PEG (in PBS) in a petri dish. The resulting tetra-amino PEG/SE-PEG mixtures were incubated for 16 hours at 37° C.
- the mixture containing 1% SE-PEG did not form a gel due to the low SE-PEG concentration.
- the mixture containing 2% SE-PEG formed a gel at some point during the 16-hour incubation period.
- the mixtures containing 3 and 4% SE-PEG formed gels within approximately 46 minutes of mixing.
- the gel containing 2% SE-PEG was readily extrudable through a 30-gauge needle; the gel containing 3% SE-PEG could be extruded through a 27-gauge needle.
- Tensile strength (i.e., elasticity) of 3 mm thick gels comprising tetra-amino PEG and 2.5, 5, and 10% (by weight) tetra SE-PEG was measured using the Instron Universal Tester, Model 4202. Gels of varying initial lengths were stretched at a rate of 10 millimeters per minute. Length of each gel, strain at failure (change in length as a percentage of the initial length), and force at failure are set forth in Table 5, below.
- Gels comprising various concentrations of tetra-amino PEG and tetra SE-PEG at PH 6, 7 and 8 were prepared in petri dishes. Following mixing of the tetra-amino PEG and tetra SE-PEG, the dishes were tilted repeatedly; the gelation time was considered to be the point at which the formulation ceased to flow.
- the effect of PH on gelation time of the various tetra-amino PEG/tetra SE-PEG formulations at room temperature is shown in Table 6, below.
- the time required for gel formation decreased with increasing pH and increasing tetra-amino PEG and tetra SE-PEG concentrations.
- HSF human skin fibroblast
- Dulbecco Modified Eagle's Media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, L-glutamine, penicillin-streptomycin, and non-essential amino acids
- concentration of cells was approximately 3 ⁇ 10 5 cells per milliliter of tetra-amino PEG/tetra SE-PEG solution, or 7.5 ⁇ 10 5 cells per well.
- a pellet of HSF cells were suspended in 1.2 ml of complete media.
- Two hundred fifty (250) microliters of the control mixture was dispensed into each of three wells on the same 48-well culture plate as used above. Each well was estimated to contain approximately 7.5 ⁇ 10 5 cells. Each well was given fresh media every other day.
- the cell-containing tetra-amino PEG/tetra SE-PEG gels were clear and the cells were found to be densely populated and spheroidal in morphology, indicating that there was little adhesion between the cells and the PEG/PEG gel (the cells would normally assume a flattened, spindle-shaped morphology when adhered to a substrate, such as to the treated plastic of the tissue culture plates).
- the media in the wells containing the PEG/PEG gels was found to have lightened in color (Dulbecco Modified Eagle's Media is normally red in color), indicating a pH change in the media. This indicated that the cells were alive and feeding.
- the cells were still spheroidal in morphology (indicating lack of adhesion to the gel) and the media had lightened even further, indicating that the cells were still viable and continued to feed.
- HSF cells are viable in the tetra-amino PEG/tetra SE-PEG crosslinked gels, but did not seem to adhere to the gel and did not appear to reproduce while entrapped within the gel matrix.
- adherence or non-adherence of cells to a substrate material can influence the cells' morphology.
- cellular morphology can, in turn, influence certain cellular functions. Therefore, non-adherence of the cells to the PEG-PEG gel matrix may be an advantage in the delivery of particular cell types whose function is influenced by cell morphology.
- cartilage cells to produce extracellular matrix materials is influenced by cellular morphology: when the cells are in the flattened, spindle-shaped configuration, the cells are in reproductive mode; when the cells are in the spheroidal configuration, reproduction stops, and the cells begin to produce extracellular matrix components.
- the gels may be particularly useful in cell delivery applications where it is desirable that the cells remain entrapped within the matrix for extended periods of time.
